Could Bump In Road Cause Drop Leg to Fall on Stallion Stabilizer Jacks
Published 08/25/2019 >
Question:
how secure are the jacks when they are in the up position not being used when you are towing the trailer. Looks like a good bump could cause them to fall down during towing.

The drop leg on the Stallion Stabilizer Jacks # 288-01892-2 that you referenced is held securely in place by a spring-loaded lever. The leg cannot physically drop unless the lever is pushed down by hand so you don't have to worry about a big bump in the road knocking something loose that would cause the leg to drop unexpectedly.
Also keep in mind that when these jacks aren't in use they can be folded to stow parallel with the trailer frame. When in this position it's locked into place using a spring and pin design.
These are very durable jacks and when they're actually in use they are designed to support up to 1,000 pounds. I have included a short video review that you can check out as well.
